Rats. 39ºC in Adelaide tomorrow and I'll be doing some work outside, all day. :ouch:
Ouch!

We hit 40° C once last month but usually it's averaging between 30º and 35º during the afternoons. Fortunately I'll head to the beach on Sunday, will stay there for a few days.
 
the weather here is so damn predictable it's not even fun anymore.



Keep in mind, we're in "winter"

I want your winter, that looks extremely nice.

It's getting colder here, it's 34 right now and by tonight it'll be 15 or so.
 
Still chilly here.

I would never slice mine open, though. I love her too much.
 
I must be the only person in Glasgow who wishes it was a few degrees colder than it is. My fridge freezer packed up (in a fit of anthropogenically-influenced abrupt climate change) last week and ever since I have been using my balcony as my fridge. That said, the Glasgow air has been keeping my beer at a drinkable temperature, but a couple more degrees lower would be perfect!

Fine, with a few cloudy periods. Southwest winds.
Feels like 15°C : 1 layer of clothing

35C outsied at the moment, with a top expected of 39. (102F) Strong winds make it an extreme fire danger. :sick: The cool change is due tonight though.
 
In the negatives with a decent snow storm tonight. My boss needs me to drive my Interceptor all night with no wipers and bald rear tires. Hopefully I make it out alive tonight.
 
Fire danger today has just been upgraded to "catastrophic", the highest fire danger rating. It's only 39 degrees C and not even that windy. :rolleyes:

Go have a barbecue, I dare you.
Barbecue's are only dangerous if you're an idiot, careless or both.

Currently -3F, feels like -2F. Not quite sure how that works at night with a 3mph breeze.
 
Yeah barbecues are actually still allowed on total fire ban days, we've had them in 40+ heat before.

And 'catastrophic' is a ridiculous term to use, they say you should evacuate before a fire starts if it's catastrophic, so what if the whole state is catastrophic? Does the whole state flee?
 
Why do you even have the barbecue set up? Just put a grate on top of a rock and I'm sure you'd get the same effect.
 
Cool change has come, but it's still 30C outside (9:30pm) and raining, hopefully no fires start with the lightning. :nervous:
 
Too hot today, and it took a while to cool down. People who like hot weather are just weird (although it is the time when bikinis come out).
 
Snow! :D We had a little flurry today and the roads are coated, and icy too. I slowed down and cleared my lights etc., everyone else left their cars covered in snow and didn't adapt in the slightest. This country is full of absolute morons.
 
You don't have headlight misters? I thought all European cars did. When mine are icy I just spray them and they clear right up.
 
Sunny and warm. Back to SoCal weather. It's going to get up to the mid-high 70's today. Rain is expected at the end of the weekend or at the beginning of next week, though. We need it, despite the several rain storms we've had the past two weeks.

Some do, they tend to be on higher end cars only though. Most models don't have them as they don't need them 99% of the time. All they have to do is brush the snow off but they don't even seem to bother with that!
 


Pretty heavy snow fall here, just took a walk in it and saw thunder and lightning aswell, really bazaar.
 
Aw. Is it too cold? If so, pour some ice cubes down your pants, and jump into cold water. And then feel my pain.

51 degrees Fahrenheit.
